Yes and point taken, my only comment related to the specific
instruments employed to trade the systems. As long as you
fully understand the leverage involved with futures as your
questions below simply raised some concerns. Take care

please don't take this the wrong way but my "plan" is to trade
the system as i've been doing since being a member. if the system
alerts a buy then i buy. if it stops out then i sell, no
questions asked. i'm merely asking how to roll over a
contract because i've never done it before. i've been a
member here long enough to know to "trade your plan" but when it
comes to the system i'm just following it.
Both the March and June Contracts are trading currently (you can
rollover now if you so choose and not wait until tomorrow).
You would simply sell the March and buy the June contract IF
that's in agreement with your outlook and plan.
I would caution anyone from trading futures/options
without a full understanding of such instruments as they deal
with substantial leverage. Please remain prudent.

hello,
waited till after hours to ask as i did not want to
disturb anyone if they were busy trading during the regular session
but... could someone please instruct me on how to roll over
my /MES contracts? will i need to sell all my contracts
before tomorrow's close and then buy back the same amount of
contracts (the june contracts) once the futures reopen at 6pm this
coming sunday? also, i notice that /ES contracts tend to be
like 40-50 points higher right after the rollover. so does
that mean i will be losing a lot of money buying at a higher price?
forgive me for my ignorance, lol. never had to roll
over a contract before. thank you for your help!
something to keep your eye on for credit stress...
HYG -> 1.81M options traded today, most
ever in a single day (Jun 13th 2022 had previous record with
1.78M). Total put volume was 1.64M which is also a record (1.61M
HYG puts traded on Jun 13th 2022). By comparison, HYG was -3.3% on
Jun 13th 2022 and only -56bps today
reminds me of Germany's post WW1 strategy of printing their way
out of the Allies reparations placed on them. I have some
$100,000 post war Reichsmarks to prove it.
Hilton was a bell hop at a hotel in Germany and the owner tipped
him a gold coin which several years later he used to buy the hotel
from the owner when he became insolvent and had to sell and no-one
had anything of value left. You know the rest of the
story.
Maybe that is the strategy to pay off the debt the congress
critters have voted for over time.

Nutso for sure. So what happens when the lights go out ?

As an example I heard in the Florida cyclone, no power or
internet for 10 days. How could you purchase anything in that
time, well cash was king. No credit cards accepted.
Here's a quarterly chart of silver - sort of like a 45 year
ascending triangle
two major peaks at $50, once in the 2011 blow off move, and in
1980 when the Hunt Brothers tried to corner the silver market
and almost went bankrupt.
That great movie from 1983 with Eddy Murphy, where those guys
tried to corner the frozen orange juice market, I wonder if they
got that idea from the Hunt Brothers since it was only a couple
years before the move LOL
that nutso Michael Saylor - a couple weeks ago I heard him
talking about the strategic Bitcoin reserve of 200,000 Bitcoins the
Gov set up - his comment was that those Bitcoins would eventually
be able to pay off the US National Debt and would be worth 100
trillion dollars
LOLOL give me a F-ing break. I don't know how he's even
allowed to make such statements being a public CEO. Bitcion would
have to be worth 500 million for that to happen LOL
Here's the facts, if Bitcoin is ever worth 500M, then we are
probably in a mad max scenario - probably better to have guns,
gold, food
he also made the statement that Bitcoin is the most reliable
financial instrument for gaining value
